TROUBLESHOOTING :
If the pump fails to operate, check the following:
Check the circuit breaker, or try a different outlet to make sure the pump is getting electrical
power.
NOTE: Always disconnect from electrical outlet before handling the pump.
Check the pump discharge and tubing for kinks and obstructions. Algae build up can be flushed
out with a garden hose.
Remove the pump inlet to access the impeller area. Turn the rotor to ensure it is not broken or
jammed.
Monthly maintenance will add to your pump's life.
NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to form a 'Drip Loop'. This
will prevent water from running down the cord into the electrical outlet.
If the pump gurgles, spews, or "burps":
Check the water level to make sure the pump has enough water to function.
Obtaining a desired water level:
Check the water level daily the first week to measure the rate of evaporation; refill with water as
needed.
If water is splashing outside the fountain:
Rocks that are hit by water and also touch the edge of the base will cause water to splash
outside of the base and contribute to the splash factor. Expect some splash to occur as you get
the rocks organized.
If splash continues, adjust the flow control valve to a lower setting, and/or rearrange
the river rocks by moving them away from the edge of the base.
CAUTION:
All servicing of this fountain must be performed by authorized HoMedics
service personnel only.
ATTENTION:
In order to get best results, please operate pump completely submerged.
Keep the water level above the minimum water level ALL THE TIME.
MAINTENANCE :
To clean the pump:
Unplug from electrical outlet. Remove it from the base of the fountain. Use a small brush or
stream of water to remove any debris (Fig 8).
To keep water clean:
Periodically change water and clean the product according to the water condition. Keeping the
water clean prevents the water from becoming sticky and forming micro-organisms.
6
To clean off hard water deposits on the base or rocks:
Soak the container and rocks in a mixture of vinegar and water to clean and remove any mineral
build-up.
Keeping the water at an optimum level:
Add water periodically to keep water level at an optimum level to avoid shortening the life of the
pump.
NOTE: Never let the pump run dry, as this will shorten the life of the pump.
Fountain Storage
Unplug the fountain from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store rocks and fountain in a
dry, cool place.
